The Note #66
Time To Chill
I don’t know where you are, but I’m writing you from New Zealand where it’s supposed to be summer, but it’s pouring rain. Stormy days—today we had to cancel all activities and just stay in—that actually are perfect. 2025 was a busy year, and I’m ready to really chill and take it easy.
The best way for me to unplug is hiking, but when the weather “forces” me to stay in, the things I absolutely love to do and could obsess on for hours are puzzles. I love these puzzles from Piecework! Very granny of me, and I totally do not understand the mechanisms of why it feels so good but I don’t care. I can stay focused for hours.
So here are a few things I love right now. This started with very beige, oatmeal, neutral colors inspiration, and soon enough colors started popping everywhere—I think my last newsletter influenced me!!!—maybe that’s also a sign for the year to come. That after this much needed break, we’ll come back in technicolor!
I hope you’re starting to unwind. Big kiss!
In my last Letter, I wrote about what I’m bringing back for 2026 (hint: cortisol, teeth, regular manicures, and much more) and a couple things I’m happily leaving behind.
In my last Note, I wrote about my story time series on Instagram - lots and lots of lessons on love and the mistakes I’ve made along the way.
In our last Live, we talked about those lessons and mistakes I’ve been rambling about during story time. Open to free and paid subs!
Let’s meet again on Tuesday, December 16th, at 10pm Paris time. I’m in New Zealand so it’ll be the morning on Wednesday for me. I hope you can join! Let me know if you need help.
At Doré, we launched two new incredible serums!!! They are formulated with a proprietary blend of silk peptides and natural ingredients that deliver visible transformation but do not irritate or sensitize your skin. Both are exclusive to Ulta Beauty and you can learn more about them here: Peptides Extreme Fermeté and Peptides Bouclier Intégral. I love them!
Back to years ago when you were doing the same in NY..... In France most people spend less money on clothing , and lots of brands are going down the slope...not because there is less money but in the uncertain political atmosphere they save. Any how if you bought the right things years ago, the quality was better and you can still wear them ....with only a twist , a detail ...
Come back to reality even if you finally live with a foreigner , rich enough husband.
Find a smarter approach, you have time and surely an artistic skill.
Love the colours! 💙
